Recommended restaurant to satisfy your cheesesteak cravings! I was greeted upon arrival and placed an order for pick up at the counter. The welcoming employee working the counter took my order and repeated it back to me to ensure it was correct (it was). I returned about 15 minutes later and my order was ready. We enjoyed all the items we purchased. I especially enjoyed the dog fries and the Cajun chicken cheesesteak. Pros: -flavorful, satisfying cheesesteaks -varied, customizable menu -affordable prices -quick, accurate orders -good customer service -employees wear masks -ample parking We enjoyed our meal and would recommend this restaurant to others! read more

Famous Phillys Cheesesteak - two sandwiches and french fries - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Clayton, North Carolina

Wanted a cheesesteak. 2nd time trying this place. In a nondescript strip center. Appears to have changed ownership, now calling themselves Los Carolinas... Mexican I guess. Employee didn't speak good English, difficult to understand. Steak was "ok", not great. Crinkle Cut fries were undercooked and over salted. Meh... read more

Ooooooohhh North Carolina! Did I just come down south and get an UP NORTH styled Philly Cheesesteak? YES I DID and not only that but the staff was masked up, gloved up, touch less payments. Even though NC can have indoor dining they were still only offering pickup and delivery- being careful! I liked that! Oh...oh...the fried mushrooms they were soooo delicious, they were breaded perfectly, fried lightly. Can't wait to go back to NC cause I'm coming back. read more

Famous Phillys Cheesesteak - Outside - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Clayton, North Carolina

We were hungry after 2 soccer practices so we decided to stop by here and grab food to go. We ordered a 12 inch ham &cheese with a side of medium size crinkle cut fries(my fave), 5 boneless buffalo wings with ranch and a gyro. The employees were very friendly and they started making our food right away.! Everything was very delicious, my only slight complaint was that there was barely any cheese on the ham and cheese, but i would still order again in hopes that this was a one off. Great establishment, I highly suggest you try it if you have a chance! read more

It wasn't...bad, but it definitely wasn't great, especially for the price. I just think a 12" cheesesteak priced at $13+ oughta be a knockout, and it just wasn't. It was more comparable to the Subway version, which is about $5 cheaper. That being said, the place was clean, the staff were friendly, and the food came out hot. Price-wise, it just should be a lot better than it was. That fact alone will probably not bring me back through the door. read more

I called to have an order delivered, and unfortunately it went through Grubhub. After a while I wondered where my order was, so it turns out the person at Grubhub who took the order entered the delivery address the same as the restaurant's address. So evidently, the driver went to Famous Philly's, picked up my order, and then immediately left it there and texted that it had been delivered. Why am I leaving a one-star review for Famous Philly's? Because they are responsible for who they choose to do business with. They think they can just brush this off as being Grubhub's issue, but it is actually Famous Philly's problems because they CHOSE to do business with an incompetent company. Then when things go wrong, they tell the customers it is not their fault. It is their fault for cutting corners and doing business with incompetent third-party businesses such as Grubhub. read more

I ordered from this restaurant via DoorDash 12/2. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak, kid chicken tenders, & a hotdog meal. Huge mistake. The ENTIRE order looked as though it had been hanging out in the back alleyway for days. The worst dining experience ever! My daughter got food poisoning from the hotdog. After dinner, she and my son got bathed and ready for bed. After falling asleep every 30 mins or so she'd awake, crying, holding her belly. After about 2 hours of this, I find her laying in her bed crying, covered in hotdog throw up!!! She threw up so much, nothing was left to throw up! Just bile! Famous for horrible food! I took 1 bite of my steak & cheese sub and chucked it in the trash. My son ate his chicken tenders, but they didn't look too appetizing. read more

Famous Phillys Cheesesteak - The BEST entree in the order, so just imagine!! - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Clayton, North Carolina

Please whatever you do, DO NOT EAT HERE! I called in a to go order and my husband went to pick it up. When he got there, THEN they told him their fryer was broken (why didn't they tell me over the phone??). We ordered wings, cheesesteaks and fries and when I but into the wings- they were RAW!! Completely uncooked chicken! I had to spit it out! The fries were completely soggy, almost as if they were put in water. When I called and told them about this and asked for a refund, Jamie told me he wouldn't refund all my money just the money for the wings and fries! I will never step foot back in this establishment and you shouldn't either unless you want food poisoning!! Jamie, the manager wasn't bothered by the fact that their serving raw food!! Eat somewhere else!!! This morning (the morning after biting into raw chicken), I am feeling really ill! I will be calling corporate and the Health department ASAP! This place should be shut down! read more

Pretty good and the closest you're going to get to a Philly cheesesteak around here. But it comes with up north pricing also. Would go there more if it wasn't so dang expensive just to get a sub. Got subs from there Thursday night. We sat right there in the parking lot and ate. I gotta say it was the 2 best subs we've ever gotten from there. DELICIOUS! And I think there might be a new owner. read more

Dont always take the reviews for granted. First their sweet tea is on point. Second I had their philly without mayo and it was absolutely delicious, so much so I ordered a second one to go. My mother enjoyed their chicken philly as well. Only thing is the heavy hand with the pepper otherwise take the chance. Bun was perfectly toasted, caramelized onions were spot on and the meat was juicy and hot, not overcooked and dried out like other places. read more

Excellent, Fresh and Tasty Steak and Cheese Sub! Quick Service !

Nice and Friendly and the food is great . It's nice to have a business like this in the community .

Pretty tasty philly. Got the works, which was with mushrooms, onions, peppers, and cheese, of course. It was fast, and the people were super nice. Not a whole lot of room to sit down, so go early or take take out... it is fast enough to get back to work and eat. The fries were super hot, but still not that crispy, so maybe ask for them crispy! It's definitely close enough to my work in clayton to make the trip! read more

Famous Phillys Cheesesteak - The works combo. Delicious - Cheesesteaks Near Me - Clayton, North Carolina

So no atmosphere or a place you want to sit and relax. Decent cheese steaks at a reasonable price. My son plowed thru the fries and tenders so that's good. I had a cheese steak that was tasty if a bit skimpy on fillings. Give it a try read more

This will be the last time I visit this establishment. Service is very slow and they constantly get the orders wrong.

We have ordered from here several times in the past and have been very satisfied with the quality of the cheesesteaks. However the difficulty arises sometimes with their phone system. There is nothing to indicate that you have called their store if no one answers the phone it's simply goes to a voicemail number. They need to correct that. read more

We agree with Ryan M. Meh...not a great sandwich. Not even a good sandwich :( I can cook up a bunch of steak-ums and put them on a stale roll for far less money. The place gets one star for having a friendly cashier, and another star for having a clean looking dining area. No stars for the food though. There is a place in Knightdale that has awesome philly cheesesteaks. I hope you find it, because that food is worth the trip. read more

This place to me has the best cheesesteaks I've had in the south. They also serve crinkle cut fries. This place is a hidden gem in Clayton. read more

First visit. Food was awesome, great wings, and the Philly is wete the best I've in NC thus far. Will be back soon!

There food here is actually pretty good. Not to many places in Clayton that has GOOD tasting food this is one of them. As well as I ordered here on DoorDash and the dasher made a small mistake with my order and the manager was very nice to fix it. Give them 5 stars on customer service he cares about his customers ! read more

This place has top notch food! The Italian sub is one of the best I have had. I am a Sub snob... choice of meats they use they don't cut you short on meat and bread is perfect... my wife had the Philly and she said it was delicious and authentic... used Grub Hub for delivery had no issues and was on time and correct!!!! Thanks read more

Well with that name you'd think you're going to be able to get a great cheese steak. And then you look at the price of them and REALLY think you're going to get a great phillycheese. I've been there 3 times my three sandwiches were DRY and not much cheese and the meat didn't cover the whole roll. My wife liked her 1st cheese steak sub but the last 2 times hers were like my sandwich's. Dry bread dry meat and not much cheese. 3 strike and your at. It's definitely not you'd get in Philadelphia for sure but they'll charge you like you buying there. Looks like a strike out unless I start hearing better reviews and lower prices. read more

This is my go to place when I'm hungry and on my way home. Get the app. It will save tons of headaches in ordering. You order on the app and it's ready before you get there. The chicken sub is a favorite of mine. It's much better than the steak. Give this place a try and try the chicken. read more

Tried it for the first time today for lunch. Had "The Works" cheesesteak. Not bad, though there wasn't a whole lot on it other than cheese and steak. Still tasty. They could stand to change up the bread. Tastes like the cheap grocery store rolls that are dry and fall apart. The shop itself is kind of simple, 5 small tables, not much atmosphere or decor. But it's a new place, maybe that will come. The cost is pretty extreme. $18 and change for a 12" sub a small bag of chips and Pepsi. That's a waaayyyyyy too much. I'll probably be back because I haven't found a better steak sub in Clayton yet, but it won't be frequently. read more

very good food,great customers service I live right down the street will be coming often. and they give griffols discounts ! Wings and cheesesteaks are delicious. Fresh food ! read more

The philly cheesesteak is sooo good! (the turkey sub was good for $4 too) the meal comes w fries and a drink for cheap! Now they don't season the food but i get it delivered so i salt and pep it at home- just something to keep in mind lol read more

Usually very good, but went for takeout yesterday and meat tasted old and bread very dry and stale. Spent quite a bit of money, trying to support local businesses, but probably won't be back. read more

The only think I have ever eaten from here are the cheesesteak sandwiches (meh) and fried mushrooms (good), but there is absolutely nothing about the restaurant that justifies the prices they charge. read more

This Pennsylvania girl was VERY pleased with the cheese steak I ordered for pick up during this quarantine. The prices were reasonable for the size of the hoagie and the amount of meat. Fries were unexpectedly good as well. Try them out! read more

Worst sandwich ever. Pita was dry and tough. Meat was chopped fine, tasteless and a very small portion. I would not go back if it were free. read more

Finally a real hotdog and authentic Philly cheesesteak!!! They also deliver! Food was served hot and portions are large!

I give 2 stars only because of service. We discovered the delivery option last Saturday afternoon and placed an order. Food arrived fresh, hot and it was delicious. Tonight, Friday night, placed an order for delivery at 8:40pm. Got a confirmation email and got excited. Got a call at 8:46 saying we are unable to deliver your order, would you be able to come pick up? Sure, can you take the tip and delivery fee off? We'll be there in ten in our pjs. Arrive at the store, they say they need to re-swipe our card. Food is ready, they just cancelled the card payment. We're not carrying our wallet, no money on us. I see our food is ready, can we take it and call you with our card? You have our info in your system. No. Such a disappointment. The food was awesome. Will not go back due to very poor customer service. read more

No longer providing the same level service as before. The cheesesteaks are expensive taste like salt. Went here a lot and then had consistently bad experiences for the last few months. Not going back. read more

The food was extremely unimpressive, not sure if this is the guys first business venture or what but everything I ordered off the menu just wasn't very good, and didn't stand out. Serious changes to the way the food is made are required in my opinion. read more

Veryy amazing food and very large portions for very low prices I really recommend it and very fast services.

I had not had a really good Philly cheesesteak sandwich since my last trip to Philadelphia a few years ago. We have friends from Philadelphia and picked up 4 Philly cheesesteaks and went to their house for dinner last night. They were delicious. Our Philly friends loved them, too. They said they were like the ones at home and really enjoyed them. The reason for the 4 stars instead of 5 is the service. We called an hour and a half ahead, and had to wait 15 minutes past the pickup time. They must have had a lot of to go orders because there were no eat-in customers there. We will go back, though. My husband and I both love a good Philly cheesesteak. read more

Walked in yesterday with a friend to get some food, guy at the counter asked me if we were going to dine in or carry out, i said dine in then he proceeded to tell me that i needed a mask when 5 feet from where i was ordering i was going to sit and take it off to eat. Now normally i wouldn't have a problem wearing a mask because i do for my job but when some one tells me i have to wear a mask to order my food through a Plexi glass window to turn around and take it off 5 feet away also when the person taking my order and cooking my food doesn't have a mask on that's what upsets me. Phillys will never get my money again. read more

I seen it the other day and wanted to stop in and give it a try. not ever having an original from Philadelphia i figured this is as close as it gets in Clayton. Steak is cut and prepped fresh daily. buns are good and have a good crust like its toasted? the peppers and onions are caramelized just right and the onion rings are out of this world. so close to the house its hard not to go everyday! read more

My husband and I actually really liked the cheesesteak. Unfortunately we went there tonight and waited for 25 minutes for 1 sub and 1 order of fries that was still not ready so we asked for our money back. The cook really thought we were being unreasonable and very rudely asked 'for what' when told we wanted our money back saying the food was ready... still no food sitting ready for us. There was no one in the restaurant at all when we walked in. There is no way it takes 25 minutes to cook 1 sub and 1 order of fries. It's a shame because we did actually like the food. Luckily after about 10 minutes of waiting the very loud music played by on the tv was turned down so at least my husband and I could talk during our unreasonably long wait. Guess you have to look on the bright side. read more

Girl taking order could not understand order, had to repeat several times then she still got it wrong.
